Star of the Week

I'm behind!!!! I'm so sorry!!

This student was Star of the Week last week. He is a special friend who loves to help others.  His favorite color is orange.  

Our Star of the Week this week is a friend that loves to run fast at recess! 

Whimsical Wands Cooking

This week we celebrated the letter Ww by making whimsical wands during our cooking lesson. We followed a recipe and then pretended we were magicians, princesses, and even the Tooth Fairy! 

Presidents and Voting

This week we have been talking about presents, past and present, the president's job and responsibilities, and why voting is important. 

Comparing George Washington and Abraham Lincoln and writing about what we would do if we were president.

Letter Writing

We have been learning about writing letters in Language Arts. Florence Hill now has an in-school postal system in which the Post Office Club collects and delivers mail to students. We can write letters to other teachers, friends, and brothers and sisters that are in other classes. So, if you see a letter from other student in another class, it was probably mailed using the Florence Hill Post Office! 

(Dear Mrs Nieves thank you for loving me) 

Math Tubs

Have you ever heard your child talk about math tubs?  Have you even wondered what Math Tubs are?  

Math Tubs is a time we review different math concepts using games and activities. Each activities is in a tub that we rotate each day. This wee we are revising addition, 3D shapes, and counting to 100.
